Hi. I'm working on a encryption thing. For it to run properly i need jsp to be able to handle big integer numbers (10^15 and higher). The long variable gets me to about 10^9, but that is not enough. I cant seem to find a way to force jsp to store my insanely large numbers.

All help would be very much appreciated!
